Find out how you can help to support Kew

Kew's Millennium Seed Bank partnership is the largest ex-situ plant conservation project in the world.

Kew has managed to 'bank' a staggering 10% of the world's wild plant species in its purpose-built building at Wakehurst Place, Sussex and also in partner seed banks around the world. The aim is to try to save 25% of the world's wild plant species by 2020. Kew targets plants in regions that are most at risk of climate change and the ever-increasing impact of human activities.

Thompson & Morgan works in partnership with Kew offering the Kew Collection of Flowers, Kew Kids and the Urban Garden Collection.

Visit the Millennium Seed Bank at Wakehurst Place

The Millennium Seed Bank Exhibition gives in insight into the invaluable work carried out to collect and preserve seeds for use in scientific research and possible reintroduction into the wild. Look out for the 'seed wall', the interactive touch-screen exhibition and children's activities. Wakehurst Place itself is well worth a visit too, with 465 acres of woodlands and ornamental gardens and an Elizabethan mansion.
